Northfield Introduces Five-Inch Diaphragm Chuck
Northfield Precision has introduced a special five inch diameter diaphragm chuck. This chuck has built in pneumatic hammer to expel morse taper locators. The diaphragm will center the workpiece and pull it into a hard stop. The MT-3 type stops are hardened and ground to 60/63 RC. These stops are ground between centers on a Tschudin grinder to guarantee they will run dead. To remove the stops, an internal pneumatic hammer is actuated to pop them out.
